What's new for NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS

The what's new provides transparency into the latest changes and improvements to NVIDIA Run:ai’s SaaS platform. The updates include new features, optimizations, and fixes aimed at improving performance and user experience.

Gradual rollout

SaaS features and bug fixes are gradually rolled out to customers to ensure a smooth transition and minimize any potential disruption. SaaS releases follow a scheduled rollout cadence, typically every two weeks, allowing us to introduce new functionalities in a controlled and predictable manner.

In contrast, bug fixes are deployed as needed to address urgent issues and are released immediately to ensure the stability and security of the service.

February 16-23

Product enhancements

  • NIM and model store: UX improvements

  • New functionalities added for CLI v2:

      • --json: Output structure in JSON format

      • --yaml: Output structure in YAML format
